Not really.
He made a few big plays early in his career, but had TONS of missed tackles to go along with that.
He's had one good season, it got to his head a bit, and then, in a contract year, he flat out sucked. He looked completely lost in coverage at times, and at one point late in the season, opposing QBs had a perfect rating throwing to his man. He played great very late in the season and had an awesome post-season. IMO, his late turnaround was the only reason he earned the Franchise Tag. He played better this year than last, but he was still overpaid.
He's only 25 and has five seasons under his belt. If his goal on his 2nd contract is to cash-in because he may get injured and never see a 3rd contract, he'll have to play somewhere else. If he wants to win, he'll sign a two or three year, team friendly deal. Try to get a ring or two and then go get his payday at 27 or 28. Kind of a gamble and I wouldn't hold it against him at all if someone offered him a big contract and he jumped at it.
